Fundamentals of Cancer Detection, Treatment, and Prevention The professional guide to cancer diagnosis and therapy for researchers and clinicians In Fundamentals of Cancer Detection, Treatment, and Prevention, distinguished researcher Surya K. De delivers a concise and authoritative guide to cancer treatment, diagnosis, and prevention. The book offers a comprehensive overview of cancer in humans, from its causes, symptoms, and diagnosis to the variety of treatment options available today. Intuitively organized by cancer type, this guide provides concise information on risk factors, diagnosis, and treatment options for all commonly encountered tumors, including surgery, radiation therapy, chemotherapy, and immunotherapy. All US FDA-approved drugs—like small molecules, peptides, monoclonal antibodies, whole antibodies, gene therapy, antibody-drug conjugates, and cell therapies—are considered, and information about their generic and brand names, clinical uses, and mechanisms of action is presented. Readers will also find: A thorough overview of human cancers, including cancer risk factors and possible preventions Comprehensive explorations of bladder, blood, brain, and spinal cord cancers Practical discussions of breast, colorectal, cervical, kidney, and liver cancer In-depth examinations of lung, skin, ovarian, vaginal, vulvar, pancreatic, and prostate cancers, as well as mesothelioma Perfect for pharmaceutical chemists, oncologists, pharmacologists, and medicinal chemists, Fundamentals of Cancer Detection, Treatment, and Prevention is an indispensable guide for professional researchers, whether they are working in the clinic or the pharmaceutical industry.

An indispensable guide for all synthetic chemists who want to learn about the most relevant reactions and reagents employed to synthesize important heterocycles and drugs! The synthesis of natural products, bioactive compounds, pharmaceuticals, and drugs is of fundamental interest in modern organic chemistry. New reagents and reaction methods towards these molecules are being constantly developed. By understanding the mechanisms involved and scope and limitations of each reaction applied, organic chemists can further improve existing reaction protocols and develop novel efficient synthetic routes towards frequently used drugs, such as Aspirin or Penicillin. Applied Organic Chemistry provides a summary of important (name) reactions and reagents applied in modern organic chemistry and drug synthesis. It covers rearrangement, condensation, olefination, metathesis, aromatic electrophilic substitutions, Pd-catalyzed C-C bond forming reactions, multi-component reactions, as well as oxidations and reductions. Each chapter is clearly structured, providing valuable information on reaction details, step-by-step mechanism, experimental procedures, applications, and (patent) references. By providing mechanistic information and representative experimental procedures, this book is an indispensable guide for researchers and professionals in organic chemistry, natural product synthesis, pharmaceutical, and medicinal chemistry, as well as post-graduates preparing themselves for a job in the pharmaceutical industry. Hot Topic: Reviews important classes of organic reactions (incl. name reactions) and reagents in medicinal chemistry. Useful: Provides information on reaction details, common reagents, and functional group transformations used to synthesize natural products, bioactive compounds, drugs, and pharmaceuticals, e.g. Aspirin, Penicillin. Unique: For every reaction the mechanism is explained step by step, and representative experimental procedures are given, unlike most books in this area. User-friendly: Chapters are clearly structured making it easy for the reader to compare different reactions. Applied Organic Chemistry is an indispensable guide for researchers and professionals in organic chemistry, natural product synthesis, pharmaceutical, and medicinal chemistry, as well as post-graduates preparing themselves for a job in the pharmaceutical industry.
